Abstract :
The paper briefly describes the design of a robust controller for an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) using polynomial eigenstructure assignment. The controller decouples the vertical motion and the pitching motion of the UUV using a first order dynamic feedback structure. A simulation of the vehicle is described and the results of the closed loop step response are shown
